Chapter 311: Order Issues
Chen Yi looked for a while, then turned and walked into the office building. On the way, she met Zhou Zhengyang who had just come to work.
"Director Chen is here, and you're back to work." He was obviously very happy.
Recently, Chen Yi was away, so he was very free. Every day, apart from cleaning, he would go to other offices to help out, otherwise he would be completely idle.
"Yeah." Chen Yi nodded and replied, "I won't trouble you for so long."
“It’s not hard, it’s not hard…” Zhou Zhengyang waved his hands quickly. He was not tired at all, he was just idle.
After returning to the office, Zhou Zhengyang hurriedly took the thermos to get hot water, and then came back to wash the teacups.
Anyway, it's just a busy job.
"Xiao Zhou, there's no need to work so hard. I can do it myself." Chen Yi thought it was a good thing because he was so diligent.
If a young person is a secretary, shouldn't he be diligent? Otherwise, he would be supporting his father.
"No need, Director Chen, this is what I should do." Zhou Zhengyang was born in a well-off cadre family, but he did not develop a spoiled character.
He also believes that work should be treated like work, and if you want to rest, you can go home and rest at will after work.
But you must be responsible and conscientious when you are working, and you cannot do nothing.
Seeing him like this, Chen Yi didn't say anything. She drank a cup of hot water and then looked at her watch.
It was almost time, so she got up and went to the factory director's office.
After knocking on the door, Director Li was a little surprised to see her.
"Comrade Chen Yi, welcome back to work." He stood up with a smile, and then the two of them sat on the sofa.
"Are you feeling better now? It won't hurt to take extra care for a few days." He said as he poured himself a glass of water.
Chen Yi replied: "I have rested well. Someone is taking care of the children at home. I feel uncomfortable not coming to work for such a long time."
It's true. She almost died of suffocation during the confinement period.
Upon hearing this, Director Li laughed and said, "It seems that Director Chen is also a hardworking person. I am the same."
"By the way, we have quite a lot of foreign trade orders for spring clothing. Our factory has had quite a lot of foreign trade this year."
Chen Yi glanced at him and asked, "Doesn't the factory have any orders from nearby? It's not right to always rely on foreign trade."
Although foreign exchange can also make money, the surrounding area also needs to be developed, which is what she has always emphasized.
After hearing her words, Director Li looked a little strange, but didn't say anything.
"What's wrong, Director Li?" Chen Yi noticed his expression and was a little confused.
Could something have gone wrong?
That shouldn't be the case. The orders from nearby would be at least 10,000 or 20,000, right? She knew the value of the clothes she designed.
Director Li took a sip of water and said, "Nothing much. It's just that the clothing from Baicheng Second Factory was sold here recently and they snatched some orders."
"Our factory also has more than 20,000 orders, which is not a small amount, and is about the same as before."
But compared with foreign trade, it is definitely not worth mentioning.
Chen Yi had expected this, and after thinking for a while she asked, "Has the designer from Factory 2 always been here? Or was he transferred from somewhere else?"
There is naturally competition in the clothing industry, whether it is state-owned or individual, it will definitely exist.
But if you understand it, you will have a clearer idea.
Director Li shook his head. "I don't know where it came from, but Baicheng Second Factory has always had good clothing orders. Our foreign trade orders have not been snatched away, but I am also a little worried."
He looked at Chen Yi, not knowing how to say some things.
Although they are all leaders in the factory, they are in charge of the production. It is impossible for them to discuss problems with others whenever they arise. The past ten years as leaders have been in vain.
Seeing his hesitant look, Chen Yi said, "Just tell me what you want to say. I bought a piece of clothing from Baicheng No. 2 Factory, and I can tell it's an imitation of ours."
"But it's hard to say. After all, the clothes are made the same way, and you can't say others are imitating them."
This is what I saw before. Some designs are overlapping, but the other party is very smart and will not let anyone catch them.
Although there is no such thing as copyright now, if imitation is too excessive, it will still be criticized.
But the Baicheng Second Factory was very smart and this situation would not happen.
In other words, experts can see it, while laymen just look at the style.
Director Li nodded in understanding, "Now that you know, I'll tell you my thoughts as well."
"It's obvious that the Baicheng Second Factory wants to come to Chuncheng to grab orders. Although the orders they grab are not a lot, it has also affected the interests of the factory."
"But orders are always in high demand, so we can't say anything. So I want to launch more styles in the spring. It would be best if the styles are more novel. Even if not many people buy them, they can still attract attention."
After hearing this, Chen Yi agreed with his idea. Since she couldn't get the lost order back, she might as well create a topic.
Use clothing to increase your visibility. Some clothes are too novel and will not be bought, but there is still room for choice for others.
As long as the reputation of Chuncheng Garment Factory No. 2 becomes known in the nearby provincial capital, there will be no problem selling other clothing products.
"Then I will make the samples of spring foreign trade clothing first, and then design a few pieces of clothing." She nodded and agreed to this method.
Director Li was very happy to see that she agreed. After all, being able to make the product meant more orders.
"Thank you for your help then, haha." He smiled.
After returning to the office, Chen Yi took the design drawings to the workshop. Wu Mei and Li Qing were very happy to see her back.
Because she can't learn new knowledge when she is away, she can learn when she comes back.
They all went to see Chen Yi when she was in confinement after giving birth. They just sat with her for a while and didn't chat for a long time.
"Director Chen, you're finally back." Wu Mei smiled and took her hand, saying, "Please teach us something new. We both have nothing to learn now."
"You should remember what you have learned now even if you haven't learned it yet." Chen Yi taught: "Only by practicing diligently can you become more proficient."
That's what they mean, but they just want to learn new knowledge.
Chen Yi handed the design drawings to the two of them and said, "This is the design drawing for the sample garment. Hurry up and make it. I have more designs to do when I go back. I will continue processing after finishing these in the next two days."
The work is urgent, so they have to work harder. Fortunately, there are two more people in the office now, and they can help.
When she heard that there were design drawings, Wu Mei couldn't help but sigh, "Your return is a big project, okay, let's finish it as soon as possible."
Since they are responsible for this job, they are usually busy during one month, but the rest of the time is quite relaxing.
Seeing that they were busy, Chen Yi turned and went to Director Zhao's office.
"Hey, Director Chen, you've had a good rest." He asked with a smile.
The factory workshops have been busy recently, and he is no exception. He also has to control quality issues.
